The TX-ADDM Project, in collaboration with TCDS and the ACT LEND Program, have developed two free screening tools. If you are concerned about your child's socio-emotional or general development, you are welcome to take one or both screeners. txaddm.disabilitystudies.utexas.edu/developmental-…

@Hipstercrite Hadn’t had an accident in >20 years then moved here 9 years ago. I’ve been rear ended twice, had a major tire blowout from crap on the road, and 3 years ago my little Fiesta got totaled by a pickup truck that wasn’t paying attention. I hate driving here & actively avoid 35.

I get Google Alerts for Austin, and from the news it would appear that driving has gotten INSANE in Austin. Like constant crashes w/ multiple cars every day. Is that really a thing now in Austin? I remember when everyone drove like it was Sunday and just cruising around town.

@llamalife7 @stella_chadwick Hi! My now-18 y/o started on GFCF at 3 and it was a game changer. I made an Amazon list several years ago that includes books and products that were helpful. amzn.to/43ULRtB

@stella_chadwick Can you recommend any books on everyday shopping/dietary recipes etc? The challenge is finding replacements that are going to be accepted, particularly for older children/young adults.

🌟 Let's talk about something that could make a world of difference for our children on the autism spectrum as well as those with PANDAS PANS and ADHD🌟 At our paediatric clinic, we've seen firsthand how embracing the right diet can lead to incredible improvements for some children. There are many approaches but the gluten and casein free diet has been the most implemented with magnificent results 🍏🥛 From tackling sleep issues and reducing anxiety to managing aggression, OCD, tics, sleep issues, reflux, constipation, diarrhoea, bloated tummy, and improving skin conditions, the benefits are truly astounding. It's about giving our kids the best shot at a happy, fulfilling life. 🌈✨ We get it – making dietary changes can feel overwhelming. That's why we're offering free discovery calls to chat about how we can help. Whether it's addressing sleep troubles, anxiety, movement challenges, or immune issues, we're here for you. 📞💬 Ready to take the first step? Click here brainstormhealth.co.uk/discovery-call/ to book your free discovery call today. Let's work together to unlock your child's full potential! 💫 #AutismSupport #GlutenFreeDiet # CaseinFreeDiet #ParentingJourney #FreeDiscoveryCall #autismdiet #GFCF #adhd #PANDAS #PANS #autismnutrition Read study here pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34617108/

Happy #AutismAcceptanceMonth! Autistic people don’t need to be fixed. They need acceptance. From classrooms to workplaces, autism acceptance means providing accommodations and giving Autistic people the support needed to thrive. Join us in creating an accepting future!
